…
In the afternoon of this day, two figures, one tall and one short, came from far away from the west of the earth.
The tall figure is a middle-aged man, wearing an old blue robe, with black and white beard and hair. His face shows the color of the vicissitudes of life, but he has a kind face and kind eyes. From a distance, he looks a bit like a crane. But
If you look carefully, you will see that his steps are slow and he does not seem to have any profound cultivation skills.
The short figure is a little girl, about eleven or twelve years old, dressed in purple, with bright eyes and pink lips, delicate eyebrows, a small cloud bun on her head, and the rest of the black silk flowing down her back. She walks briskly and is extremely agile.
Endearing.
"Dad, how long do we have until we reach Tiangang Gate?" the little girl asked with a pout as she looked at the endless land.
The middle-aged man's cloudy eyes were staring at the horizon, silent, letting the wind blow his long and messy hair, as if he was immersed in some kind of thoughts.
"Daddy, did you hear me?" Seeing that the middle-aged man didn't reply, the little girl shook the hand held by him.
The middle-aged man looked lovingly at the slightly angry little girl beside him, smiled lovingly, and said: "Yi'er, there are still more than 10,000 miles away from Tiangang Gate!"
"There are still more than 10,000 miles left?" The little girl named Ziyi exclaimed after hearing the middle-aged man's words, and her wide-open eyes looked even more charming.
"Dad, if we keep walking like this, we won't be able to reach Tiangang Gate even if we walk for a year. How about you take me flying, it will be faster." Ziyi said with a smile.
The middle-aged man smiled and shook his head, and said in a thick voice: "Nowadays, killings are everywhere, flying in the sky, showing people's eyes and ears, which is tantamount to seeking powerful enemies. We still pretend to be mortals and walk on foot. Although it is slower, we must
It’s a lot safer.”
After finishing speaking, a trace of imperceptible anxiety flashed in his eyes.
"Oh." Ziyi blinked her eyes, lowered her head, pursed her lips, and said no more.
After coughing a few times, the middle-aged man continued: "Yi'er, we don't have to walk to Tiangang Gate. We only need to walk to Guiwuyi City a hundred miles away. From Guiwuyi City, we can use the teleportation array to
You can reach Tiangang Gate immediately."
There was a trace of excitement in the eyes of the middle-aged man. The original impulse made him leave Tiangangmen for more than ten years, and almost everyone thought he was dead.
When people return to their hometown when tired, the leaves have fallen and they return to their roots. After wandering for too long, how can they return to their hometown? How can their emotions remain unchanged?
After several days of trekking, we are getting closer and closer to Guiwuyi City. If we keep walking like this, we will reach Guiwuyi City in one or two days. If we can return to our sect, we no longer have to wander and hide in the wind and rain, and we can
Give the little girl who has been wandering around with him for many years a stable place to grow up.
Ziyi's eyes lit up and she clapped her hands happily and said, "Okay, we are almost reaching the place where the immortals live. I will be able to fly around in the sky like my father in the future."
Purple ripples look to the sky, full of hope.
The middle-aged man looked at the lively and lovely Ziyi, smiled lovingly, and held her hand a little tighter.
"Dad, are there really gods living in Tiangang Gate? Are you also a god inside?" Ziyi suddenly raised her eyebrows and asked.
The middle-aged man chuckled, stroking his beard with his right hand and said: "Dad used to be a semi-immortal, but now that he is old, he has to be a mortal." After saying that, there was a trace of loneliness in his eyes, and his steps seemed heavier.
Ziyi lowered her head and thought for a few steps, then raised her head and said, "Dad, walking slowly like this is so boring. Tell me something interesting!"
The middle-aged man concealed his slight loneliness, raised the corner of his mouth, and said: "Okay, I have been talking about the legends and mysteries of this world for a year and a half, but I still can't explain even a drop of the nine. Well, then.
Let’s talk about something simple first.”
Ziyi pricked up her ears, stopped walking so hastily, and listened attentively to the middle-aged man's words. For more than ten years, she had been living with the middle-aged man. Just a few months ago, the middle-aged man said that he would take her back.
The Tao Sect had kept her excited for a long time. What she saw and heard made her even more curious.
The middle-aged man's ancient and desolate voice sounded like a preacher, explaining the wonders of the world.
"I have not personally experienced many things, nor have I seen them with my own eyes, but learned them from ancient books. If I tell you now, you will find them mysterious and complicated, but in the future, you may experience these mysteries yourself."
"Legend has it that in this world, the sky is round and the square is square. In the center of the earth, there is a pillar called Tianshu, with a diameter of eighty-eight thousand miles, penetrating the sky and the earth. It is endless and has no end. People who are not cultivators cannot see it. However, those who can see it,
You have to take a detour. You cannot see people, but you can walk from one end to the other without any hindrance. It is only one step away. It is really amazing."
"With Tianshu as the center, there is a vast land. The land is so big that it is said to be hundreds of millions of miles away. This is the Central Origin Continent. We are now located in the Central Origin Continent. The specific location is in the southeast of the Central Origin Continent.
In the square area, Tiangang Gate is in front of us, more than 10,000 miles to the east, at the top of Wuyuan Mountain."
The middle-aged man pointed to the east. However, apart from the vast land and vague mountains, there were no man-made buildings in the east. But Ziyi felt that her sight was being pulled, transcending time and space, to reach the ethereal and mysterious abyss.
The top of the mountain.
The middle-aged man put down his hand and continued: "Legend has it that there are four great pillars, located in the southeast, southwest, northeast, and northwest. These four pillars are also far away from the central source continent where we are.
Very far. Because the distance is too far, I have not been able to go there. The world is so big that it is unimaginable. Even the huge Central Source Continent is just a small pebble on the giant peak..."
Ziyi listened quietly, sometimes her eyes were wide-eyed and open-mouthed in surprise, sometimes she was so excited that she clenched her pink fists, and sometimes she was wandering in anticipation... The little daughter's spontaneous and flexible temperament was vividly displayed.
"Dad, look, there seems to be a big hole in front of you! It's strange. The terrain has been very flat along the way. How can there be a big hole here? It seems like a hole just made by something..."
Ziyi tried her best to stand on tiptoes and look closely. The pit was still a hundred feet away from her, and it was useless to stand on tiptoes to look far away. However, out of curiosity, Ziyi still stood on tiptoes and tried her best to look.
The middle-aged man frowned, and when he searched with his spiritual sense, there was a faint breath of life hidden in the pit, and he couldn't help but frown even more.
"Within a thousand miles around, there are no birds and beasts, and not a blade of grass grows. How can there be any breath of life?" Currently in troubled times, the middle-aged man does not dare to be careless, and is fully alert to the movement around him to avoid unexpected events.
Ziyi has always been under the protection of a middle-aged man. She is new to the world, almost unwary of danger, and her pure heart is completely occupied by curiosity. She let go of the middle-aged man's hand and trotted towards the big pit.
The middle-aged man shook his head and smiled bitterly. He also quickened his pace and followed closely, using his right hand's spiritual power to secretly protect Ziyi.
"Dad, there seems to be a person lying at the bottom of the pit. He is motionless and seems to have no breath!" Ziyi stood outside the pit and said in a deep voice. She did not feel afraid at all, but showed pity in her eyes.
Because the pit was surrounded by powder-like dust, Ziyi's fragile body was quietly suspended three inches above the ground under the not-so-strong spiritual power. Such strength was achieved after she exerted all her strength.
